Isn't it mandatory for every MTD and block device to implement this command? `BIOC_PARTINFO` could follow the same approach.

This will probably be the solution for majority of use cases. The application is hardly interested in the physical characteristics of the device. Yes, I think so. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service. To respond to the message, please log on to GitHub and use the URL above to go to the specific comment.
